  • #til In #Godot when you attach a node with a scale as a child of one that doesn't support scale (Node vs Node2D for example), there is a flicker as the card is rescaled. Convert the node to a scale supporting type to fix this.

  • #til In Godot, if a scene is instantiated at design time and a child is added to it, does the child belongs to the scene whose tree is currently open, or the scene it's attached to?

    When duplicating a node (including a scene) at runtime it is the node tree where the node sits that is duplicated, so it includes the child. But if the scene is marked as a InstancePlaceholder, and create_instance() is called at runtime, it creates a instance of the scene, and any attached children have to be duplicated and attached to the instance with code. #Godot
